Phosphene was founded in 2000 by Ed Phillips, an
active Open Source and free software developer, as a
consultancy and research enterprise.
Mr. Phillips was evangelizing for and
adopting Open Source languages, tools, and
frameworks at the companies at which he was
employed. Phosphene immediately began delivering
value to its customers and Phosphene quickly evolved
into a trusted resource for a number of startups and
larger institutions.

Phosphene has continued to evangelize, theorize,
and develop custom networks and
applications. Phosphene has also honed and polished
sets of best practices, best of breed tools,
conventions, and agile methodologies.
